In detail view, I’d like to be able to reorder the rows for a lookup column being displayed as a table. If the corresponding column is set to sort on “table order” I’d assume that it would reorder the rows in the source table (in the same way that rows would be reordered in a filtered view). It’s w…

They’ve done it! Thanks Coda! [image] Launched: Improvements to Subtables News from Coda Subtables in Coda give you a powerful and intuitive way of managing connected data such as tasks for a project, but we know that they can have a tricky learning curve. As part of our …

Hi @MrChrisRodriguez :slight_smile: So basically that table is a cell that contain a formula like “table1” and it is showed as a table in a detail view I have many setup like that and if i need a specific order i just use “table1.sort(desired sorting)” and it work, can you share a dummy doc? So i …

Hey Mario – thanks for the reply. I understand that, but it’s effectively a derived filtered view of an existing table. I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s how it was represented under the hood (i.e. a lookup column displayed in detail view is just a table view filtered with a formula). In the same w…

Maybe i have an idea of why this strange behaviour happens I think that the original table, when “recalled” with a formula is loaded as “complete table”, let me give you an example If i have my original table (let’s call it table1) in page1 and in that page i filter it to show just some part of th…

Hi @MrChrisRodriguez , You right that this is not available currently. Part of the reason is that this is essentially a formula column displayed as a table, so it’s not 100% a view in how it works. It’s also a little caught in the middle of some layout work being done to make forms possible, so some…

I’ve stumbled across this post with the same problem - I don’t suppose there’s now a fix for this?

Hello @Ben_Lee , Happy New Year! Will the new editor’s Canvas column help with this in some way? I suppose not as if we put a view inside the column, there is no way to programmatically set the view’s filter to only show elements that should correspond to the current parent row detail. Unless there i…

You’re totally right on this and it’s something that we’ve been researching and working on solving along with the canvas column type work. So the answer for now is not right now, but we hope to have this as a possibility for this feature.

I run into this all the time and for me the issue is new items I add to the nested table appear at the top of the nested table and not the bottom like other tables. One solution to this particular issue is to create a hidden column that contains the “visual position” of a row within the source tabl…

Hi @Ben_Lee Any news on this topic? I have a two way relation set up between parent task (original) and child tasks (formulaic). I can’t reorder the child rows in the detail view of the parent task, even though they are not automatically sorted by any rule. [image] [image]

Built this concise demo doc, with the intent to post here, before searching :man_facepalming: FWIW, I would love support for this feature. From a data structure perspective, my proposal would be that manipulating the order in the detail view’s embedded table, reorders the rows in the source table. …
